THE WAILING WALL

From November 6, 1945, here's an Inner Sanctum Mystery featurng Boris Karloff and Jackson Beck in a spin on Poe's 'The Telltale Heart."  Produced and directed by Himan Brown, the original radio play was written by Milton Lewis. Your host is Paul McGrath, who replaced Raymond Johnson earlier that year.  Mary Bennett is the lady shilling Lipton tea.

Inner Sanctum Mystery began on the Blue network on January 7, 1941 and ran to October 5, 1952 for a total of 511 episodes.  It tied into Simon and Schuster's Inner Sanctum line of mysteries.  BTW, the Inner Sanctum mystery novel of that month was Devil in the Bush by "Matthew Head" (art critic and histoian John Canaday).

Enjoy.
